From now until the #election, I'm playing the Benny Hill theme tune at full volume and adopting a Kenneth Williams "oooh matron" voice, because it's now the only way to keep a grip on #reality
@PaulNickson@TCMuffin@spytfyre@Man How strange! In the 1980s, 1982 I think, I took a YTS evaluation as a commercial air diver at Fort Bovisand dive school to see if I was suitable for the full course. Of 20 people on the evaluation, including currently working divers, I was the only one to pass! However, the medical exam failed me because I have hay fever!
Hay fever? Under 50m of water? What the actual f2k? 😳
I questioned their decision and was still failed on medical grounds.

@EZLorenzImagery We do have them in zoos and the like. I saw a couple in Canada when I was there a year ago, or maybe Alaska, one of the two! Beautiful birds.
Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Sunday. A day of rest? Not for me. We are seeing Saint David this morning and walking Wesley. Then, later, I'm going under the bath! As our house has been sold, it is now rebelling against us. The bath is leaking! Also the new boiler but that the plumber's problem!
I have to work in the space beneath the bath in image 1, while attempting to fix a leak from the plug at the far end of image 2. I may be gone some time!
So, progress. I filled the bath this AM and noted where exactly the leak was coming from. Drip. Drip. Drip. No longer a flood as before but repair attempt 1 had obviously not been a success.
This PM, I managed to strip it all out and redo it with another new O ring. A quick test and it's looking good. Well know for sure after bath time tonight.
Space trash falling back to earth is not progress.
Stealing a woman’s voice is not progress.
Taking data and information from people without their consent is not progress.
Consuming vast amounts of water as we teeter on climate disaster is not progress.
Consolidating wealth to a few who are the ones dumping space trash, stealing women’s voices, taking data without consent and depleting precious water resources is not progress.
Government that protects those wealthy few is #NotProgress.
I asked this a while ago but I wanted to ask again since I'm on a new server :
Long time Reddit user but I'm tired of their bullish!t and want to move on like I moved on from the bird site... or now I guess it's the swastica site.
What is everyone using to replace Reddit in their lives?
A platypus walks into a bar and orders a pint of finest cider. The bar is owned by a mallard duck. The platypus finishes his drink, and asks how much he owed.
